Air Products
Air Products (APD) focuses on large-scale industrial-gas infrastructure for electronics and energy customers. Recent coverage highlights APD's selection by Samsung Electronics to supply gases for a next-generation semiconductor fab in Pyeongtaek, South Korea, and its implications for APD's global electronics footprint.
Past bets that played out
Primary highlight: APD was selected by Samsung Electronics to supply N2, O2, Ar and H2 for Samsung’s new advanced semiconductor fab in Pyeongtaek. APD will build, own, and operate multiple production facilities and a bulk specialty-gas supply system with phased startup expected 2028–2030. This transaction is described as APD’s largest semiconductor-industry investment and would make Pyeongtaek APD’s largest electronics-support operations site globally.

Air Products to Expand Industrial Gas Supply for Samsung Electronics' Next-Generation Semiconductor Fab in South Korea

Energy Fuels' U.S. Rare Earth Processing Expansion Boasts Lower-Than-Expected CAPEX, Significant Annual EBITDA, and Among the Lowest Cost NdPr Production in the World
Energy Fuels (UUUU) released a Bankable Feasibility Study for a Phase 2 rare earth processing expansion at its White Mesa Mill (Utah). Reported CAPEX is ~$410M (lower than expected per headline), with stated low all-in production cost (~$29.39/kg NdPr-equivalent from Vara Mada) and planned capacity of ~6,000 tpa NdPr plus dysprosium (240 tpa) and terbium (66 tpa). The company frames this as a U.S. rare earth supply-chain “bottleneck” solution and claims first-quartile cost positioning.
Proof-backed call history
Recent research activity centers on strategic supply agreements and supply-chain developments. Notable recent items include the Samsung Pyeongtaek contract for APD and a published bankable feasibility study from Energy Fuels on rare-earth processing economics at White Mesa Mill.
